- Delete - We don't need redirects from the user space of departed users. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:48, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
- Speedy redirect. No reason to delete. WP:ATD. Redirects are cheap, far cheaper than MfD discussions; far cheaper that the insult of deleting other's userspace content. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:30, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
- What do you mean cheap? Also, it can't be that insulting if they haven't worked on it for 6 years. SKay (talk) 12:01, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Redirects are cheap. If there is a problem, consider solutions with consideration of the costs. MfD is fairly expensive. Creation of a redirect is very cheap. In calculating costs, give some value to volunteer editor time.
- Insult? Let’s assume the user returns. Do you think they feel welcomed back by not being able to find their old work, not even in their contribution history? This is a cost too. Was the content so bad that the user should be rebuffed by its deletion? —SmokeyJoe (talk) 12:21, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
